Very nice job,maybe I should make a dice tower, I roll on the game board wherever there is a relatively blank area but it gets carried away occasionally.

I love Dice Towers: they keep the dice under control, and on the table! Also they guarantee random rolls, due to the baffles and tray. Here are some slow-motion videos which demonstrate both singular dice (d4-d20) rolling, as well as a handful of of dice rolling through a Dice Tower. No more of the dreaded d4's plopping out of your hand, onto the tabletop, without really "rolling"… Cheers!

I am a carpenter and have a idea how to make one

I just got a couple of unfinished wood cigar boxes from Amazon and made a dice tray out of each of them. I discarded the tops, which had the shallowest edge walls. I lined the bottom and insides of the walls with felt and it works great. I've seen dice go flying out of those dice tower trays plenty of times too.

Combo: dice tower that feeds into a dice tray.
